Review:
“The pieces in this collection belong to a peculiar genre sometimes cultivated by the late Virginia Woolf. They are half short stories, half dreams, and they mix a sometimes exquisite poetry with a homely realistic observation. They take place in a special world, a world of feminine perception and fancy.... Miss Nin is a very good artist, as perhaps none of the literary Surrealists is.”
― Edmund Wilson, The New Yorker
